1853-C Gold Dollar, MS64
Ex: Elrod

1853-C G$1 MS64 NGC. Variety 1. Ex: Elrod. Sole die pair for the year. Like most Type One branch mint gold dollars, the 1853-C poses a significant challenge in Mint State grades, but a handful of exceptional pieces survive. This coin, ex: Elrod, is among them, a gorgeous near-Gem with utterly original gold-orange patina and glimmers of lighter yellow. Intricately detailed hair curls on Liberty's portrait match the strong definition on most of the surrounding stars. This smooth and beautiful Condition Census coin is housed in an earlier-generation NGC holder with external hologram.(Registry values: N1)
